Nearly a Third of Americans are Nuts

According to Rasmussen Reports:

Two-out-of-three American voters (67%) lack confidence that Congress knows what it's doing when it comes to the economy.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that just 29% are at least somewhat confident in the economic wisdom of the legislature. Those figures include seven percent (7%) who are Very Confident that Congress knows what it's doing and 38% who are Not at All Confident.

Who are these 29 percent of the people?  And the seven percent who are "very confident" in Congress must be border-line psychotic!

Sir,
Just because I'm bi-polar does not mean that I'm a Democrat also.

29% are the escaped from the asylum. Have pity on them for their affliction.

if they snort a little of the coke left in Ted's safe, it will concentrate their minds..

It's easy! At least 7% of the "likely voters" contacted are named "Mickey Mouse", " Donald Duck", etc....all registered by ACORN!

They don't care about the economy! Most of their voters don't work and pay taxes. I would say a good percentage of them anyway. The rest of them all have government jobs and won't be laid off or are union workers getting 95% of their pay while laid off.

That's why it doesn't mean anything much to them. But, they know it will "bash" traditional conservative (capitalists) workers.

To them it. HURRAY!

"Dude, why don't you just tell them the truth then?"

"We do that too... and most people believe the truth... but one third of the population is retarded!"

I believe the polite term is "socialist."

Only a third?

‘Attaway, Congress. Nearly one whole third! « The Sagamore Journal links to this page. Here’s an excerpt:

…somewhat confident that Congress knows what it’s doing when it comes to the economy. Of course 67% lack confidence, buy hey – one third’s not too bad right? So let’s have one third of a three cheers for the United States Legislature. Now that you’ve got the economic mess sorted out, let’s finish up the delicate process of reforming destroying the US health care system.…

About a third of Americans are nuts, but for different reasons. About a third of Democrats think Bush had something to do with 9/11 and about a third of Republicans think Obama isn't a citizen. Given that about a third of moderates will follow suit in their own wishy washy way for some sort of idiocy, and it tells us that about a third of everyone is just plain stupid. Or nuts. Or (my particular choice) both.
